Motherhood

"No occupation in this world is more trying to soul and body than the care of young children. What patience and wisdom, skill and unlimited love it calls for. God gave the work to mothers and furnished them for it, and they cannot shirk it and be guiltless.” ― Isabella MacDonald Alden (The Aunt of Grace Livingston Hill)

From "On The Banks of Plum Creek"

"After Laura and Mary had washed and wiped the dishes, swept the floor, made their bed, and dusted, they settled down with their books. But the house was so cozy and pretty that Laura kept looking up at it."

- Laura Ingalls Wilder

Human Frailty of the Godly Soul

Charles Spurgeon:

"The life of Luther might suffice to give a thousand instances,and he was by no means of the weaker sort. His great spirit wasoften in the seventh heaven of exultation, and as frequently onthe borders of despair. His very deathbed was not free from tempests, and he sobbed himself into his last sleep like a greatly wearied child."

From "The Little Preacher" (p. 146)

"As for her, like most women, she had but one ambition. To be a good wife and a good mother, and to be beloved by her husband and children, was all she asked. [She was] a busy, affectionate, cheerful little housewife, whose voice would never be heard in the streets, but whose memory would always live in a few faithful hearts."

- Elizabeth Prentiss, 1800's.

Housewife:A married woman who stays home. This is a lifelong vocation. It is an old-fashioned term, and something to be proud of.Not a "domestic engineer." Not a "home manager."An old fashioned housewife, who keeps the home,and abides there.- Mrs. White

Each product does not cause drowsiness and has no drug interactions. Natural cold remedies should be used to catch the sickness before it takes root in the body. At the first sign of sickness, one should immediately begin taking the cold medicine.

How it worked for me:

I received this product several weeks ago. I was waiting to get sick. (smiles) Finally, I had a minor sore throat. I started using the "Coldcalm" tablets. These have no real taste. The tablets dissolve easily within a matter of seconds, so there is no need to worry about swallowing a heavy pill. I faithfully watched the clock and took the pills in 15 minute intervals for 2 hours and then continued with the remedy for the rest of the morning. Thankfully, my sore throat did not get any worse. My 16 year old daughter had just gotten over strep throat so I had been worried I would catch it from her. However, my throat got a little better but did not entirely improve for a few days. I had no real discomfort and am happy to report no ill effects from the medicine.

The Giveaway:

I am a follower and would like to be entered in the giveaway! =) I'm just now getting into homeopathics, and although I love the health benefits, it's a little tougher on the budget than the regular walmart drugs.. =) I'm all for free samples. P.S. My favorite winter remedy so far, (and my daughters') is once we feel a cold coming on to eat a few cloves of fresh garlic. It burns! so after cutting them up we take a small bite, take a sip of water, then chew a little, then swallow! We've done it a few times the first few days of a cold, and the cold always "reverses"! =)

One of my best remedies for anything cough related is a spoonful of honey with thyme sprinkled on top. Someone told me years ago while I had pneumonia about it and it really helped me breathe. Now everytime I get a cough I start taking it.
